Flamborough is a renowned beauty spot and a twenty five minute stroll from your doorstep brings you to the headland with views down to the little sandy bay where fishermen still mend their nets. The lighthouse up on the cliff top in Flamborough is a sight to behold, from this view point as you look down into the sea watch out for seals bobbing in the waves. The rugged cliff line provides excellent cliff top walks and breath-taking views across to the rspb Bird Sanctuary at Bempton and onwards to Filey Brigg. There are nesting gannets and colourful puffins here. Nearby there are some great destinations for days out. Traditional seaside towns such as Bridlington, with miles of sandy beaches, and leisure facilities including a swimming pool and spa pavilion, is just 3 miles away.

Further inland is the North York Moors National Park with many quaint little villages to explore. The market town of Pickering is home to the steam railway where a journey through the Esk valley will not disappoint.
